When you make a quilt, at some point you will have to consider the quilt binding. You may opt for an elaborate binding that makes an impact on the overall design, a simple and subtle binding, or no binding at all.
Our foremothers knew how to make a quilt using only what they had, from scraps of fabric to natural dyes. But, quilt making the frugal and eco-friendly way was easier for them:
Right now, I'm looking for quick quilting projects to make. Running through the file of quilting ideas I keep in my head, I remembered these sweet little free-motion stitched stockings by Diane Rusin Doran from Quilting Arts Gifts 2011.

- Health Notes
- Reliable and relatively consistent scientific data showing a substantial health benefit.
- Contradictory, insufficient, or preliminary studies suggesting a health benefit or minimal health benefit.
- For an herb, supported by traditional use but minimal or no scientific evidence. For a supplement, little scientific support.
Our proprietary "Star-Rating" system was developed to help you easily understand the amount of scientific support behind each supplement in relation to a specific health condition. While there is no way to predict whether a vitamin, mineral, or herb will successfully treat or prevent associated health conditions, our unique ratings tell you how well these supplements are understood by the medical community, and whether studies have found them to be effective for other people.
For over a decade, our team has combed through thousands of research articles published in reputable journals. To help you make educated decisions, and to better understand controversial or confusing supplements, our medical experts have digested the science into these three easy-to-follow ratings. We hope this provides you with a helpful resource to make informed decisions towards your health and well-being.

Hey guys hopefully you can help me out here!
I have firmware 2.2.0 and wanted to just install cydia and installer. My phone was unlocked and activated previously and I forgot what method I used.. anyways. I used Quickpwn 2.2.5 for Windows and proceeded to add both cydia and installer through the instruction process. Quickpwn said jailbreak was successful, but my phone keeps rebooting and only shows the apple logo where instead it should show the prompt to enter my passcode. If I let it sit, then it reboots again and again and never shows the springboard, only the apple logo. I have run through quickpwn about 4 times successfully, but I can't get phone to the welcome screen where I can put my password. I don't want to restore using iTunes because I have sensitive info that I did not back up (don't mention it )
Any thoughts on how to fix this without a restore? I have no phone now! Any help will be appreciated.
P.S: I downloaded Quickpwn for mac and it wont even recognize the iphone. Itunes will tell me that I need to know the pass code to sync.. Windows XP will pop up the "open files" folder and I can see my pics in the iphone, so everything is still there, just can't get passed the apple logo. I have hope though!!!!!!

Celeb Style: Ashton Kutcher at 'Flawless' Premiere
Ashton Kutcher is one of my low-key style icons. Firstly, he started out as a model and it was he who introduced the now infamous 'trucker cap' to the fashion scene. Rumours were rife of a fashion collaboration when he was spotted note-taking in the front rows of fashion weeks and now he has provided us with even more style inspiration.
At the premiere of Demi Moore's new film, 'Flawless,' Ashton was a picture of muted luxury with his regal red tie, opulent tweed coat and not-too-flashy Louis Vuitton scarf. This is a look that anyone can copy this Winter!

Is the Cookie Diet a Healthy Way to Lose Weight?
The cookie diet was created by Dr. Sanford Siegal in 1975. He created, developed and published this diet after using his family, friends and himself to test the weight loss products that were best suited to be appetite suppressants. He zeroed in on a formula that contains amino acids, which according to him, are a perfect weight loss supplement. The Cookie Diet revolves around this product, which is shaped as a cookie. He later came up with soups and shakes that contain this formula to complement the Cookie Diet.
The recipe of the carefully fashioned cookie is the key to the Cookie Diet. It is claimed that the cookies suppress hunger. Dr. Siegal also claims that his cookies work the best when blood sugar levels are kept low. He states that even small amounts of carbohydrates work against hunger suppression. As hunger suppression is the main tool to help patients lose weight, it necessitated that no carbohydrates be consumed during the day.
The Cookie Diet involves only one meal - dinner, which is comprised of 6 ounces of chicken, turkey, fish or sea food, accompanied by a cup of vegetables. All through the day, you are allowed exactly six cookies, which are available to patients at Dr. Siegal's five clinics in Florida and one in Montreal. The doctor runs his own bakery to make his cookies and to sell online. These cookies are also available with select physicians.
The Cookie Diet is a controversial diet. The majority of the criticism about this diet hovers around the insufficiency of calories recommended and the extremely low carbohydrate intake.
Six cookies and one cup of vegetables can provide a maximum of 70 grams of carbohydrates. This is below the recommended minimum intake of 100 to 125 grams in a day, which is necessary for a healthy body.
The cookies provide 540 calories in all, 300 of which come from the dinner. The weight loss that has been reported after adopting the Cookie Diet is mainly due to deprivation. Anyone consuming 800 calories is bound to lose weight, but at the price of one's health! The diet lacks fruits and vegetables completely. Although Dr. Siegal claims that the cookies are fortified with vitamins, they still lack Vitamin D4 and calcium in the recommended quantities.
Dr. Siegal admits that the Cookie Diet is not something that patients would stay on permanently. Once normal diet is resumed, it is most likely that the lost weight is regained. The diet appears to be more of a gimmick to sell cookies to the gullible public rather than a healthy weight loss plan.References:

My only problem is the ipad is a little hard to get docked, especially if the Smart Cover is on. A few times I thought I docked it, but in the morning realized the plug was only wedged betweeen the smart cover and the ipad!
The remote control works but I wish it were a little more hefty. It feels so lightweight that it's kinda like a toy remote. If the line of sight is blocked, the remote doesn't work very well.
Overall, this is a beautiful piece of equipment that works well with your ipod/ipad. …

Best Bang For Your Buck!

I was immediately impressed with the sound quality. It does only play FM stations. But, if you have an iPhone, iPad, or iPod you can download apps through the app store, connect it to this baby & it will play the radio through the device!
I have owned a Bose stereo, & if you know the company. They produce High Quality audio at a high price tag. Where as this device sounds almost..if not just as good. It has several sound options to adjust to what type of music your listening to. So if you want a quality item for a fraction of the price..look no further! I absolutely love it! :-D …

After spending most of his life in his family's restaurant, the scent of Italian meat sauce was in more than just Jerry Rosi's clothes. It reached his heart and stayed.
This week, he gave a piece of that heart and nearly 100 quarts of his famous Bimbo's sauce to some needy people in the community where he's made a life.
Bimbo's, an Italian fixture for more than 80 years, began in 1921 as a Tacoma lunch counter on Pacific Avenue. It was opened by Vittorio "Bimbo" Perniconi, Rosi's great uncle. By the time Rosi was born in 1945, his father, Reno, was managing the cafe.
"I probably first went there in the late '40s, and there was always a plate of spaghetti," Rosi said. "At 14, I was working there washing dishes – I worked my way up."
At 20, he was taught to cook.
"When my great-uncle retired, so did one of his three cooks, Sammy. He taught me everything he knew," Rosi said.
Including how to cook Bimbo's four sauces – meat sauce, tomato sauce, pesto and clam.
"None of them were ever written down, but it's basically never changed," Rosi said. "There's not a lot of ingredients. The key is keep your eye on it, and within a couple of minutes of the time everything comes together, you mix it all and let it simmer – or it's ruined."
In 1965, Rosi bought out his great uncle Vito. Thirty-six years later, the city of Tacoma bought out Rosi to make room for a convention center that wound up being built somewhere else.
"They bought out my lease, pots and pans, and paid for the recipes," he said.
Bimbo's closed, and with it, customers lost the sauces they'd come to love over generations.
In retirement, Rosi did yard work, kept up on the world and cooked – at least a couple of times a week – for wife Rene and anyone who happened by. And when he cooked, he always made that meat sauce.
"I've known Jerry for a long time, at first as a customer," his friend Jeff Graham said. "I missed that sauce. The last two or three years, whenever I hosted my cigar club, I had Jerry make that sauce."
In 2011, Rosi bought back the family recipes from the city. For about 10 years, the Tacoma resident had been thinking about re-opening a restaurant, but knew it wasn't going to happen.
"Nowadays, restaurants come and go, and opening one is a seven-day-a-week proposition," Rosi said. "I love cooking, but I don't like the prep work, the cleanup."
Graham and a member of his cigar club, Mike Hargreaves, talked about the sauce and the man who made it. Hargreaves, who owns Stadium Thriftway, had an idea revolving around the store's full-service kitchen. Graham put Hargreaves and Rosi together to discuss it.
"I made him an offer," Hargreaves said. "He comes in one, two days a week, and cooks as much as he can cook in a day – 32 quarts of his sauce.
"We do the prep work, supply the ingredients, but the most important ingredient is Jerry. When he's done cooking, he leaves and we clean up.
"It's fun, a unique thing in the store."
A quart jar of Bimbo's meat sauce goes for $12.95 at the Thriftway. Hargreaves said they sell fast.
Rosi enjoyed the project so much he decided to give something back to the community. He settled on The Rescue Mission in Tacoma, which years ago stood next to Bimbo's restaurant.
On Tuesday, Rosi used Graham's home kitchen to cook up close to 100 quarts of meat sauce. A day later, with Hargreaves' store and grocery supplier providing pasta, salad and bread, the men put on a spaghetti feed for the less fortunate.
"We fed about 300 people at the downtown mission and another 100 at the Adams Street Family Campus," said Lindsey Hintz, director of volunteers for the mission.
Rosi was in his element.
"I was third-generation at Bimbo's, and we had customers who'd come in for two and three generations, people I knew," he said. "I miss that, I miss feeding people, cooking for them."
At 68, he thinks the family recipes may die when he does.
"I taught my two children to cook, but they each went in different directions," he said. "It's not a matter of ingredients. The key is timing and cooking without distraction. You burn the onions, that's it. You've ruined it all."

Associated Press (04.25.12) - Thursday, April 26, 2012
The South Carolina House on Wednesday passed a bill that would
provide informational brochures on human papillomavirus
vaccine to the parents of sixth-graders and offer the vaccine
for free to rising seventh-graders whose parents approve.
However, the state Department of Health and Environmental
Control is required to furnish the pamphlets and shots only if
the program receives funding. Rep. Bakari Sellers (D-Denmark)
hopes the initiative will be included in DHEC's budget request
to lawmakers next year. HPV infection causes most cases of
cervical cancer.

Clementino Part III
I still really haven't had closure to the whole Clementino situation. (If you have no idea what I'm talking about, check out Part I and Part II.) What kind of closure am I expecting? I don't think there can really be any. I've tried to put words to how I feel about all this, mostly for myself, so I can untangle it and move on. Unrequited love is one of those tragic things that I find difficult to process, no matter which side of the equation I happen to be on.
This would all be hilarious that I'm suffering all sorts of angst over this piropo if Clementino was just looking for casual sex and doesn't really love me. I've tried to convince myself of that but Suegra told me something that makes me think otherwise.
She went to the market the other day with my older son to buy phone cards. Clementino's wife was at the counter and Suegra said she could hear Clementino in one of the aisles stocking shelves. Suegra bought the phone cards and then requested to purchase Bubu Lubus, (for me of course.)
Well, Suegra says that as soon as she said the words "Bubu Lubus," – Clementino raced to the front, almost tripping over himself. He came out to the front counter, and seeing Suegra at the register, started looking around the rest of the store. When he presumably saw that I wasn't there, he went back to re-stocking shelves.
To make sure Suegra wasn't just making up stories, I asked my older son and he said that's exactly what happened.
So anyway, yesterday was Valentine's Day and I received a package in the mail covered in hearts. The boys hoping there was something for them inside despite my name being on it, watched me open it. I pulled out a 24 pack box of Bubu Lubus.
My youngest son looked at the Bubu Lubus and the hearts all over the envelope and jumped to conclusions.
"Woah!" he said, "Are those from Clementino?"
I assured him they weren't. Silly cipote. Then Carlos came home and seeing the box of Bubu Lubus and heart patterned envelope raised an eyebrow.
"Who are those from?" he asked.
"My friend, Amanda!"
"….Hm….are you sure?"
I showed him the shipping address as proof. Obviously, Carlos is still thinking about the Clementino situation too.

oh that's just sad…. at first I thought it was sweet, funny and harmless, but it's not if it's coming home with you.
@claudiadelcid Estoy de acuerdo! I'll watch it! :)
@Tracy What a wonderful friend & beautful packaging! It reminds me of something my sisters would send me. Did she know of the Clemintino story before she sent the package? Hopefully with time this situation will pass and things will return to normal.
Ay ahora si se puso incómodo!
On the bright side… you get to pamper Carlos A LOT so he can rest assured that you´re all "his", no? ;)
Toda una telenovela! Hope it all ends well.
So sorry to have contributed to more drama y locura, but this all started with "Los Herederos del Monte"!
I was so grateful for the great synopsis you gave that night, (when mi esposo and I went out on a date and I was afraid I would miss "the show") so I felt like I didn't miss a beat. So, it's Los Herederos' fault….to further complicate this matter :)
Thanks for all the fun!
Pobre Clementino – estas quemada en su corazon! Todo esto es gran marketing para Bubu-Lubus, sin embargo!
jajajajaj ke chistosoo….ok es un confession aveces a mi me gusta jugar con mi novio ponerlo celosa…ya no mucho por que la ultima vez se puso todo lastimado con sus calzones all tangled jejeje…. anyways bt its funny..now when me on the other end though its not very funny… i am a nut case with jealous… i think carlos is my long lost brother jajaja
Great package! And LOL that it had hearts so it made everyone raise an eyebrow at it!

They thought he was dead, but workers and suppliers now worry that the owner of an Orchard Plaza noodle shop may have fled the country.
Mr Kenji Misawa, 48, the owner of Noodle House Ken, allegedly left behind unpaid workers and suppliers.
Two suppliers said they intend to lodge a police report, but feel that trying to get the debts settled would be a lost cause.
The workers whom Mr Misawa had allegedly failed to pay were also at their wits' end.
Little is known about Mr Misawa, other than the fact that he is short, quiet and has strange habits.

There are a lot of modern computer threats out there and it is important that you know how to protect your system from such threats.
Update Your Systems: This is perhaps one of the things that a lot of companies are taking for granted. It can be time-consuming and exhausting but then again, updating software, operating system and everything which needs to be updated can help improve security.
Keep Everything Standard: It is vital that you are aware of what software is running in your network. It is also important that you should make everything standard meaning that if you are using particular software then make it a point that every system in your network is using the same software and is being maintained by a specific group of people as oppose to random individuals in the office. So if you are using Avira Business Edition in your computer then make it a point that the whole network is also utilizing the same software.
Manage Your Security: Make it a point that you are familiar with the security settings of each browser that you are getting. Be aware of what they offer and what they cannot so you can adjust your network accordingly and be able to manage your security better. Is it more convenient for you and your employees to be using a browser that always asks permission for everything that you do online? Or is it better to be able to just do everything conveniently but offers a higher risk?
In this age, you cannot afford to be lax about your computer security especially if you are a business owner. Lots of money tends to be lost due to lack of computer security.

The long running PPI claims scandal is set to cost the banks many billions of pounds, and there is no sign of an end to the problem. Following a series of complaints a few years ago it was discovered that lenders were routinely selling PPI policies in a manner that was not within the prescribed regulations.
We have so far helped many people make a successful PPI reclaim for compensation on mis-sold policies, and we can also help you get back what you are owed in the least stressful manner.
What is Payment Protection Insurance?
PPI, or payment protection insurance, is a policy that you pay into in order to keep up the monthly repayments on a loan, mortgage or credit agreement should you find you are out of work thanks to involuntary redundancy. Many people have been found to have been mis-sold such policies; hence they are claiming back the fees.
To start your PPI claims today or to find out more about claiming compensation, simply fill out the form above or give us a call for free on and speak with one of our advisers.
Mis Sold PPI Explained
While PPI itself is a useful insurance policy, there were a number of complaints about routine mis-selling of packages some years ago. These payment protection insurance complaints were upheld upon investigation as it was discovered that the rules were being flouted on a widespread basis.
Borrowers were not being given a chance to buy their own policy from other than the lender, some were not told they needed a policy, and others were sold policies that were useless. In all of these cases you are entitled to make PPI claims, and it has never been easier to do so.
Claiming Back PPI Charges
We offer you a no win no fee* PPI claim service so that you don't pay a penny in the event your claim is unsuccessful. The current industry average PPI refunds payout is around £2,750, and with our success rate we can help you get back what you are owed without any need for worry or stress.
To start your PPI claims today or to find out more about claiming compensation, simply fill out the form above or give us a call for free on and speak with one of our advisers.

Kempton clerk of the course Barney Clifford sees no need to call an inspection ahead of the William Hill King George VI Chase meeting on Boxing Day.
Although conditions will be demanding, the Sunbury circuit was "perfectly raceable" on Christmas Day morning.
Clifford said: "We've had two heavy showers yielding eight millimetres of rain. The ground is officially heavy. There are further showers around, but I think we've seen the worst of them."
He went on: "There is likely to be more rain just after midnight, but Boxing Day is forecast to be bright and sunny until mid-afternoon.
"It's perfectly raceable and we can look forward to a bumper day."

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"This card came out exactly as I ordered it. The only thing I would have changed if I could have is the line where it says where they are registered. My bride and groom are not registered anywhere and I would liked to have it say "for gift ideas, check our website". Other than that, I am totally pleased with my purchase and the time it took for printing and delivery."
"As much as I loved the original design colors - I was able to customize the invitations using the brides colors. It added such a personal touch to the invitation. The on-line ordering was easy to use and it allowed me to easily change the text to the way that I needed it to read. Service was wonderful. Customer service over the phone was outstanding. I had read reviews about the envelopes being too big, but they are glued in a way that perfectly fits the invitation so that it does not move around. I look forward to using Wedding Paper Divas again in the future and will definitely recommend to my friends and family."
"This was a very pretty and fun card, however I did not like the envelopes not being the same size nor color, that did not look professional to me. The card is an ivory/ecru color and envelopes were white; also even a pkg of cards/envelopes you buy @ walmart fits. That was my only disappointment."
"The invitation came out great! My mom and I had a few specific wording, color changes etc and everything came out just as we expected. The customer service rep was great!! We got out first proof and wanted to change some colors and within a few days it was sent back to us perfectly. Shipped on time and we are so happy with these bridal shower invites for my sister :) would definitely recommend using. Price was very fair as well. Yes, like some previous posts have said, the envelopes were a little bigger than the invite but it looks fine!! Thanks!"
"The card is beautiful. The stock is substantial with a very nice coating on it. This is my second purchase, and we were extremely happy with both purchases. Keep up the good work."

Sheriff: Suspect shot in shoulder
A man wanted by local authorities was shot while trying to evade officers on Tuesday afternoon.
Carter County Sheriff Chris Mathes said deputies learned Keith Brummitt was near the Dollar General Store at Milligan Highway and Okolona Road. The man fled on foot down Okolona Road, into a wooden area.
An altercation ensued between Brummitt and deputies. Mathes said a deputy, who he would not identify, shot Brummitt in the shoulder.
Brummitt, who Mathes said has a long criminal history, was taken to the Johnson City Medical Center for non-life threatening injuries. The deputy was taken to a local hospital for minor injuries.
The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation is assisting in the investigation.

It provides more than 14,000 animal adoption groups with free home pages and technical support to spotlight their adoptable pets online as well as providing networking platforms, discounts and gifts, and education for the groups. Visitors to the site, from the comfort of their homes, enter search criteria to see animals available for adoption ranked by distance from their Zip codes.

These funds were used to support more than 7,000 local animal welfare groups across the U.S. The Petco Foundation endeavors to create responsible animal guardians, reduce the number of adoptable animals euthanized, rescue animals in crisis and assist in modifying behavioral issues to make companion animals more adoptable.

6/4/2012 Health Notes
NMT practitioners analyze and chart dysfunctional postural patterns to identify the underlying cause of your pain. This is a critical step, because the body often refers pain to a location other than the source of the problem. If a treatment focuses only on the symptom, the underlying cause will go untreated, as will your pain. This is what sets NMT apart from traditional massage therapy: NMT treats the cause of the pain rather than just the symptoms, resulting in lasting pain relief.
Once the cause of pain is identified, NMT follows a specific protocol for rehabilitation:
- Eliminate muscle spasm
- Restore flexibility
- Restore proper biomechanics
- Increase muscle strength
- Increase muscle endurance
This important conversation was an informative conversation that can change the way your body feels.
